The 66-year old man from Gigante, Huila, confessed to the local
newspaper, La
Nacion, he had overdosed on Viagra in an attempt to please his new
girlfriend.

However, as a result of his enthusiastic
penis-enhancing-drug use, the man, who claims to be a former member of the
Gigante municipal council, found that his penis had gone into an apparently
constant state of erection.

Initially, he didn’t mind his altered state, but found out
his member began to hurt a few days into the erection, the reports say.

Gigante doctors were alarmed by the complexity of the issue
and referred the man to Neiva,
the department capital with more ample medical facilities.

Medics at the Neiva hospital alerted the man his penis was
inflamed, fractured and showed signs of gangrene, and had to be amputated to
prevent the inflammation and gangrene from spreading to other parts of his
body, says the Daily
Mail.

They informed the patient his only option was amputation so
the inflammation and gangrene would stop spreading to other parts of his body.

A doctor told local newspaper La Nacion: 'The patient showed
bruising on the testicles and penis, was treated and is recovering well.'

As a result of the incident, the Neiva hospital issued a warning for men to
not use penis enhancing drugs or erectile dysfunction medication without
prescription from their doctors.

There was no information on the age of the new girlfriend or
if the couple is still together, says the Toronto
Sun.
